Chapter 342 Decisive Action
It has been six months, and even though she deliberately improved the quality of her meals and reduced the amount she ate, Bi Qiaoan's belly was still a whole circle bigger than that of an ordinary pregnant woman, and she looked like she was about to give birth.
However, compared with pregnant women carrying twins, Bi Qiaoan's belly is still quite small.
Neither Shen Yanming nor Bi Qiaoan minded. Instead, they thought it was good because every time they had a prenatal checkup, the doctor said the baby was healthy.
In March, the temperature in Hai City had risen to 25 degrees, and even the temperature in Beiha City and Simon City had risen to 11 or 12 degrees above zero.
Therefore, the Qinghe Alliance issued a notice asking residents who were avoiding the cold in central and southern cities to pack their bags and go home quickly, as the houses provided to them by the Qinghe Alliance would only be free until mid-March.
Most people were very quick. I heard that people there also started to feel homesick when spring came and the flowers bloomed, so they quickly packed up their things and prepared to check out and leave.
The so-called check-out, of course, is after the local housing authority and security team have checked and confirmed that there is no damage to the house, bed and wardrobe. Otherwise, you will be blacklisted, and any future policies will not benefit you and your family.
It is precisely because of this regulation that these people clean the house spotlessly before leaving, and even wash the sheets and quilt covers provided by the guard team, which reduces a lot of burden for the Housing Authority and the guard team.
The arrangements for returning to the hometown are similar to those for the original migration. Those who have cars can make their own arrangements and leave whenever they want. Those who don't have cars can just take the bus as they did when they first came here, and use trucks to transport their luggage.
When they left, Shen Yanming, Bi Qiaoan, and Yu Shui all came over to see them off.
Although they don't spend much time with them in normal times, they occasionally chat with them in the group, or show up when they need help, and they have established some casual friendship.
This time, Bi Qiaoan still prepared gifts for them, but it was no longer ginger sugar water, but various vegetable seeds nourished by space and spiritual spring water.
Although the total amount of seeds was quite a lot, Bi Qiaoan packed them into small packages.
Although there is only a little bit in each packet, it is enough to satisfy the family's needs.
In fact, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan had thought about contributing the food seeds that had been nourished in the space, but for what reason? They wouldn't be captured and sliced!
Vegetables are different from grains. Vegetables are not conspicuous, and many people grow them at home and take good care of them. Even if the yield is a little higher, it will not be too surprising.
But grain is grown outdoors, exposed to wind, rain, weeds and insects. If the yield suddenly increases significantly, even a fool would find that something is wrong!
What's more, even though it has been two years since the apocalypse, they have not experienced that kind of world-destroying catastrophe. Most people just can't eat well, but having enough to eat is not a problem. Didn't you see that the Qinghe Alliance has not used up its grain reserves so far!
Therefore, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan decided not to be the savior hero. They had no revenge and just wanted to live a peaceful life.
This time, Bi Qiaoan sent vegetable seeds to the residents of Beiha City, and the excuse he used was still the new varieties bred by the Mechel Company.
She was not afraid of being investigated for this reason, because she and Shen Yanming had indeed purchased a large number of seeds there, but the seeds they bought at that time were mainly flowers.
But even so, the vegetable seeds that Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan bought were not a small number. They couldn't grow many, so it was enough to give some to others.
The residents of Beiha City who received the seeds were deeply moved.
They didn't expect that strangers, who had only met a few times because of the arrangement of the Qinghe Alliance, would actually consider them so much.
Regardless of whether they will plant these seeds after returning home, they should be grateful for the kindness alone.
Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. After sending the residents of Beiha City away, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan actually felt a little empty in their hearts.
Without the constant chatting in the group and without being occasionally called to help, they actually felt extremely lonely.
Could it be that I have a masochistic tendency?
Don’t think about it anymore, life has to go on!
It is worth mentioning that Hu Xiaoqin and Hu Xiaole actually stayed in Hai City.
That woman was also capable. After being advised by Shen Yanming, her small business flourished. In a short period of time, she accumulated a large amount of money and grain.
But she knew that one day she would have to return to Beiha City, and when that day came, all her efforts now would be in vain.
Moreover, she always had a hunch that even if she followed the arrangement and returned to Beiha City this time, she would still have to come to Hai City to avoid the cold in winter.
Instead of that, it’s better to just stay.
You know, Hai City's conditions are much better than Beiha City in all aspects.
So, Hu Xiaoqin and Bi Qiaoan asked around and then ran to the household registration department of Hai City to inquire about the relevant policies.
After receiving the reply that she could not relocate her household registration, Hu Xiaoqin refused to accept her fate.
She thought that Qinghua State did not prevent population movement in the past, so why couldn't it transfer household registration now? Forget about dividing the land or anything like that. At most, she could just allocate a piece of wasteland to her and she could open it up on her own.
So, she went to the household registration department every few days to wait there, and after annoying the people there, they said, "Do you have the ability to find someone to marry?"
Hu Xiaoqin's eyes lit up, and she thought, "Yes, if I get married, you can't stop me from moving my household registration, right? All the policies of the Qinghe Alliance are people-oriented. If I separate my husband and wife because of some regulations, that would be too inhumane!"
Hu Xiaoqin was determined to find a local to marry, and if she was not allowed to move after marriage, she would make a scene.
If all the trouble still doesn't lead to any result, she will get a divorce.
To her, face doesn’t matter; benefits are the most important!
In this way, Hu Xiaoqin secretly looked for a suitable family while doing business. Believe it or not, she actually found one.
The man is a widower from the suburbs of Hai City.
Because he had no job, average looks, and a 10-year-old daughter, the matchmaker would be ruthlessly rejected when introducing the man to the woman. So the widower never found a suitable partner to remarry.
Hu Xiaoqin met him when she went to his house to collect eggs. After observation, she confirmed that although the man's conditions were average, he was down-to-earth and hardworking, and his daughter was also obedient.
So Hu Xiaoqin took decisive action.
Anyway, she is not married and is almost the same as married. She doesn't mind that the other party has a history of marriage, and she doesn't care that the other party has a burden. In her opinion, the two are equally matched.
Hu Xiaoqin told the man her thoughts directly. Of course, she did not hide the fact that she had given birth out of wedlock, nor did she hide the fact that she wanted to settle down in Haishi.
Only by being open and honest can we be fair to men.
